(UBER/CNN) - Ride-hailing company Uber said it is boosting salaries to make sure workers are paid well - regardless of gender or race.
The changes will go into effect on Aug. 1.
Uber will work to provide equal compensation based on location, job function and tenure.
The changes come as Uber works to repair its culture and reputation following a series of crises in recent months, including sexual harassment allegations, a lawsuit from Google's self-driving car division and the departure of CEO and cofounder Travis Kalanick.
